AMLE Sessions: Publishing your work

This blog addresses the following: classroom management, working with exceptionalities, and technology in middle schools. (Know that people will be responding to your posts and offering their insights and advice.)

I am in a session that talks about publishing. It is giving advice and sharing opportunities for editors to share their work. Some of the journals relate specifically to research. Many of the articles are open source, meaning the articles do not require a password or a requirement of membership. Some of the advice is to use:

Clarity: use the APA manual... chapters 2 and 3 will give you good advice.
Significance: how your manuscript relates to current research. Include references to existing field work, and
Integrity: internal consistency, support your arguments with evidence and explain the significance as it relates to current work. Explain how your work fills the missing pieces. What is the significance of your work?

They are sharing information about the power of research and the need for teachers to share their work. North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee all have Middle Level journals and Middle Level conferences. I would recommend

Middle Grades Review is a journal out of Vermont. Two areas of interest.
